Week Seven is a BIG week for Riptide puppies. This week I begin their initial Temperament tests as well as ramp up Conformation and Performance Sports training. Temperament tests are done using the Volhard Method which gives me more of an idea of what each puppy’s personality will most likely be once grown. This helps me also determine which puppy will fit which future family. It is not a definitive factor but it does help. This week the puppies will also receive their initial vaccines and be microchipped.
Make sure to visit the nursery to see more images of the pups.
This Monday we tried to get the pups up on the stacking block but they were not having it after eating all the yummy food.
Cali, Riptide’s California Dreamin’, decided that a quick dip in the pool was more fun than helping us with taking pictures of the pups.
